when they practice, do they pace? or give their all same as race?

baka kasi may hat trick mga ibang drivers

as i know the teams try different combinations and solutions, its really hard to tell practice times. They give it their all i would say to make a more accurate feedback for the team. but engines could be tuned down and fuel levels could be high, it really all depends on the teams direction for the practice session.

one thing though since last season is that seb never runs his engine on maximum on any given practice as his chassis is arguably the best engineered at the moment

^its fantastic, they will decide next month if the DRS rule needs a tweak, i hope they allow it for the whole race not just in the zone...this should make it more exciting and not handicap anyone

redbull is blazingly fast.. thanks to adrian newey!

dati bilib ako kay ross brawn, pero parang napagiwanan na ni adrian newey sa technical specs..

although sabi nila mercedes GP has the best DRS daw.

kaya lang ang bagal nila e. 

i guess having full support/budget from redbull helps!  sky's the langit!

bro waxx, agree with you here

sanay si ross sa sky the langit for a decade with ferrari, then na challenge sya sa honda now mercedes. With the budget cap in place adrian is the man with the momentum.

i hope they continue to be inspired so they wont walk away from the sport, these guys are the best there is now..

Mercedes has the best DRS giving them up to 18km/h advantage over RBR's 8km/h. But the trade off would be less downforce in cornering, which is why they still appear to be slower than RBR and MacLaren.

Nico and Micheal are 5th and 6th in second free practice. Hopefully we can see consistency in the last practice, quali and actual race.

I think si Rory Byrne yung katapat ni Adrian Newey kaya nga lang retired na siya. Kung si Rory Byrne ang designer ng Mercedes, I think may fighting chance sila.

vettel is still fastest in today's morning practice.

followed by Button, Hamilton, Rosberg, Alonso, Massa, Petrov, Sutil, Schumacher

qualifying at 2pm

although PDVD clock is 1 hour delayed

Awesome race with plenty of overtaking action! Congrats to Lewis for winning the Chinese GP, with an almost close call to starting from the pits. Bad start from Vettel but still able to clinch second. Great race for Webber, coming from P18 to a podium 3rd. There is really no denying RBR's race pace even without KERS.

Fantastic driving by Hamilton and Webber

Pirelli's quickly degrading tires are making it very exciting this year.

i guess iba ang practice suits ng mclaren sa official racing suits..

china gp is so exciting, didnt know it was this much exciting sa tv, watched the china gp last year kasi sa shanghai, all i saw were cars passing by..

mas sulit sa tv, mas exciting.

weber for me was the best driver in this race. from 18th to 3rd place!  if there were 4 more laps, he wouldve ended 1st.

hmmm mas ok ata ang wag ka magcompete sa qualifying to have fresher tires in the race mismo. by not being able to qualify in q2 and q3 weber was able to preserve his option tires! thats an additional 8-10 laps of speed rin combined!

one thing i also noticed its better to be tailgaiting at second place the whole race, then at the last lap of the race, use DRS sa DRS zone, slipstream and slingshot to take first place and get the checkered flag in 1st position! since bawal ata mag DRS ka pag walang car sa unahan mo diba? or mali ako?

if this is the case, they should review DRS rules.. i say, walang zone zone, just use DRS at your own discretion, ala KERS, pasensyahan kung you lose control!

did anybody see fernando alonso using DRS sa no DRS zone? why didnt he get penalized by race stewards?

and jensson button pitting in the redbull pit, thats hilarious! mas nakakatawa pa siguro kung pinalitan ng gulong ng redbull, ano kaya penalties nun? i guess the redbull pit crew was going "wtf is wrong with this guy??"   kulang nalang lagyan pa ng isang horn switch ang f1 steering wheel sobrang dami ng pindutan!

cant wait for turkey in 3 weeks. dun nag wheel to wheel ang dalawang redbulls last year.. exciting!

yeah, pretty exciting race.

Great drive by mark indeed, 3 stopper compared to sebastian 2, tama ba??

good experiment by red bull in my opinion lang, or did they compromise for sebastians race position after the bad start, it could have gone either way for red bull... the problem with the different strategy opened up tons of data and analysis by other teams.

it may only be a matter of time before the teams would master how to best make a strategy for the race with tires..i hope pirelli wont give a pattern of some sort. Nevertheless Red Bull is just awesome, 'not bad for an energy drink team' - Mark Webber

i think DRS varies from circuit to circuit, as in the last race they put it in the easiest place to overtake which was also the longest part of the circuit.
i think DRS can only be activated by a trigger when you are in the zone.

haha, jenson the joker...
did you notice how focussed some mechanics where? good thing he was waved through, because if he stopped, those wheel guns would have been engaged.. big lapse on jenson there that could have caused them both race positions.

WTF is wrong with michael??? WOW

Ferrari is also quite lost.

Did anyone notice the star sports broadcast, the background is much loader than the commentators? I find the commentators of BBC way better plus HD broadcast.

^Contrary to what you believe, it actually gives the action that we are seeing these past 3 races. Or would you rather have a parade similar to last year's Bahrain race?

Schumacher's main rival this year is KOBAYASHI.    ;D ;D ;D  If his Mercedes teammate can consistently manage to finish higher than him, that proves Schu-chan is already too ji-chan to compete.

BBC's broadcast is absolutely awesome.  Lots of commentaries, behind the scenes, and pit interviews before and after the race - not to mention eyepopping 1080p high def.

Alonso was too far back hence, the other teams didn't bother to complain about the DRS controversy.

Those Pirelli tires really look like black cheese.

in the next few races, we should see the ability of the chasing teams to get their act right and at the same time the leading teams maintain their advantages.

btw, di resta is blowing sutil away consistently since the first race. this talent should be taken by another team sooner than later. Sutil has to step up as nico hulkenberg is already in the team as reserve driver who is quite talented too

i would believe so, but the thing is their kers system is only for the start of the race since they opted for less batteries and weight saving (easily 70kg worth).... i may be wrong but thats how i heard it. of course the system also can be attached or not depending on team decision every race.

another red bull win last weekend in Barcelona, wasnt a walk in the park as usual but timing of the execution of pit strategy for vettel... interesting when alonso got the lead in the early stages.

thiw weekend will be held in Monaco which should be always as interesting with practice starting today tradionally, looking forward to this weekends grand prix
